If you're looking for some summer reading to help keep the kids entertained - as well as mom and dad - you might want to consider a new series from first time author, BBC Radio host Simon Mayo.
WSIU's Jeff Williams recently talked with Mayo about his debut novel Itch: The Explosive Adventures of an Element Hunter for this edition of In the Author's Voice.
In the Author's Voice is a listener supported service of WSIU Public Radio and Southern Illinois University Carbdondale.
